Biography
A former school teacher in the middle of the 1970s she joined a terrorist group called the Brigate Rosse. Together with her husband, Luigi Novelli, she was arrested twice, but was never sent to jail because a verdict was not reached in time. In 1993, she left Italy to avoid being arrested following her conviction of killing a policeman, various attempted murders, and other minor offenses. She moved to Paris where, thanks to the Mitterrand doctrine, she started a new life. She was arrested by the French, but the government of Nicolas Sarkozy announced that Petrella would not be extradited to Italy on medical grounds.
